and financially both the republican super pacs and romney campaign, the obama campaign and his super pac, they've spent more cash in those three states than anywhere else. and if you look at ohio especially, the spending in the big markets there, columbus, cincinnati and cleveland, it's much higher than any other markets in the country. so i think it really is coming down to those three. and the obama folks think that romney has got to have all three or there's no path for him. the romney campaign makes the case that they can win two of the three and still find a path, but it gets much more difficult because the margin of error, if you're romney and you only win two of the three, it doesn't allow for any other losses, really. >> mark halperin, where does the romney campaign see the most opportunity, number one, and which one are they most concerned about? >> the most opportunity is florida. in fact, i think they are hoping they can effectively put it away in the next few weeks, the obama folks here don't agree with that. the ohio is the toughest one. romney continues to have i had yo
